  5. Dear Chair Beswick:

    Orange County needs a locally-controlled, reliable, drought-proof water supply and the Huntington Beach Seawater Desalination Facility fits the bill.  This project will reduce our dependency on imported water and protect Orange County in case of emergency or drought. 

    Poseidon Resources has spent over a decade working on the environmental regulatory review process and the science clearly shows that desalinating seawater has no significant impact on the marine life or coastal habitat.  Additionally, this project would create thousands of good-paying jobs for Orange County at a time when our state unemployment is more than 12 percent. 

    Conservation, Recycling and Imported water are all important components to our water supply, but desalination must be part of that equation.  A reliable water supply is crucial to the economic growth of our region. 

    In August 2006, your board approved the original permit for this project and now we’re asking you to approve this amended application. 

    Orange County needs the water and jobs.  Please vote yes.

    Sincerely,

  • A review of the public record shows that all environmental impact analysis, including one done by the City of Huntington Beach as well as one done by the Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board, conclude that this desalination facility can be constructed in a way that would result in impacts that are “less than significant.” Therefore, we urge your support.

    “Desalination must be included in any discussion of future water sources for Orange County.

    Metropolitan supports development of a seawater desalination project in Huntington Beach…the completed project would help diversify Southern California’s water resource portfolio and provide a new, local water supply that would help reduce the reliance on imported supplies to meet expected future demand.

    -Metropolitan Water District of Southern California, December 6, 2011
    MWDOC’s Urban Water Management Plan identifies seawater desalination as a critical component of its plan to diversify the County’s water supply and reduce demand on imported water.

    -Municipal Water District of Orange County, October 31, 2011
    This local, drought-proof water supply reduces the county’s dependence on imported water and will contribute to a stronger economy, new jobs and millions in tax revenues.

    -California Department of Water Resources, October 14, 2010
    This fresh water facility would bring millions in revenue to Orange County - money that could support schools, police and fire protection, health, welfare, and transportation.
    - Orange County Taxpayers Association
    Orange County has an opportunity to play a leadership role by planning for its future. While the fresh water facility is not the sole answer to Southern California water needs, it should definitely be included especially given the current state of California's levee system.
    - Lucy Dunn, Vice President Orange County Business Council
    The builder will spend tens of millions of dollars locally to build a water facility for the benefit of Orange county residents. Private investors will put up the money and take all financial risk. It's a win win situation.
    - Reed L. Royalty, President Orange County Taxpayers Assocition
    This facility will ease the tax burden on the rest of us, but will demand little in government services.
